Introduction: Religious Confluences in the Roman Empire; or: Why ‘Oriental Cults’ Again?

Why to produce yet another volume on the religious history of the Roman Empire and especially on the so-called ‘oriental cults’? After all, the last decades have seen the publication of a number of good surveys and introductory essays on various aspects of religious life in the Imperium Romanum,1 including the peculiar appearance of cults that originally were and sometimes remained – at least from a certain perspective and in certain circumstances – ‘foreign’ or ‘non-institutionalized’ ones.2 More specifically, the latter phenomenon has been treated extensively in a whole series of studies that was initiated in the 1960s: starting under the title Études préliminaires aux cultes orientales dans l’Empire romain (EPRO) and later renamed as Religions in the Graeco-Roman World (RGW), the series has by now reached more than 180 volumes.3 In addition, regarding the three cults envisaged in this volume (i.e. those of Isis, Mithras and Jupiter Dolichenus), we have experienced a lively series of conferences on the cult of Isis in the Roman Empire4 as well as regular meetings on Mithraic studies5 and a number of general studies on this cult,6 recently joined by intensive research on the origins and

1 A number of good introductory and general essays on religious life in the Roman Empire have been published in the last years, cf. BEARD/NORTH/PRICE, Religions of Rome; SCHEID, Introduction; RÜPKE, Religion; ID., Roman Religion, RIVES, Religion; ANDO, Matter of the Gods; NORTH/PRICE, Religious History. The broad range of gods venerated in the Roman Empire, and especially the cults of Mithras, Isis, Magna Mater and Jupiter Dolichenus, were also the subject of a large exhibition in the Badisches Landesmuseum at Karlsruhe in 2013/14; for which see the catalogue ‘Imperium der Götter’. 2 The supposed ‘foreignness’ of the cults in question, often regarded as part of the so-called sacra pergrina, constitutes a problem in itself, as it was a rather fluid with no clearly defined boundaries; cf. BENDLIN, Pragmatik religiösen Verhaltens (and also below n. 18). 3 One of the most recently published volumes in the series RGW, BRICAULT/BONNET, Panthée, contains a number of papers that are highly relevant for our subject. 4 BRICAULT, De Memphis à Rome; BRICAULT, Isis en Occident; BRICAULT/VERSLUYS/MEY- BOOM, Nile into Tiber; BRICAULT/VERSLUYS, Isis on the Nile; BRICAULT/VERSLUYS, Power, Poli- tics. 5 HINNELLS, Studies in ; VOMER GOJKOVIČ, Mithraskult; MARTENS/DE BOE, Roman Mithraism. For an overview of Mithraic studies in the last decades, see BECK, Mithraism since Franz Cumont, and ID., Mithraism after ‘Mithraism since Franz Cumont’. 6 MERKELBACH, Mithras; CLAUSS, Cultores Mithrae; BECK, Religion of the Mithras Cult; GOR- DON, Roman Army; CLAUSS, Mithras; GORDON, Mithras; HENSEN, Mithras. The classic study of CUMONT, Mystères des Mithra, has been recently re-edited by N. BELAYCHE and A. MASTROCINQUE (with a useful introduction into the historiographical background of CUMONT’s work). In addition, some important regional studies on Mithraism have been produced in the last years; cf. FRACKOWIAK, Fremde Götter (for the Germanic provinces); SCHULTE, Mithras in Gallien (for Northern Gaul); KLÖCKNER, Mithras auf der Iberischen Halbinsel (for ); SICOE, Stein- 2 Joachim Friedrich Quack / Christian Witschel diffusion of the cult of Jupiter Dolichenus.7 So, to repeat the initial question: why did we initiate yet another project on this subject? On the one hand, the intensive research carried out during the last years on the so- called ‘oriental cults’ has reached an important phase. There are by now some very useful corpora of data especially for the cult of Isis thanks to the work of Laurent Bri- cault and his group,8 which make the production of an overall synthesis much easier.9 At the same time new and exciting discoveries have occurred all around the Roman world which might help to advance our understanding of these religious phenomena significantly. For the cult of Isis, the demotic Egyptian sources provide a rich new in- put, and much is still to be gained from papyri which remain unpublished at the mo- ment.10 Regarding the cult of Mithras, recent archaeological fieldwork has led to the detection of new temples and interesting objects11 – both on a large scale like inscrip- tions12 and wall-paintings,13 but also with regard to ‘small finds’ like pottery and - denkmäler aus Dakien (for ); GRIFFITH, Mithraism in Imperial Rome (for Rome); WHITE, Mithraism at Ostia (for Ostia; cf. also RIEGER, Heiligtümer; STEUERNAGEL, Kult). We await a new comprehensive study on the ‘oriental cults’ in Ostia by R. MARCHESINI. 7 For some recent summaries of our knowledge on the cult of Jupiter Dolichenus, see the papers in BLÖMER/WINTER, Iuppiter Dolichenus (esp. BLÖMER, Iuppiter Dolichenus; COLLAR, Comma- gene) as well as SANZI, Iuppiter Optimus Maximus Dolichenus. The research in Doliche itself has been undertaken by our colleagues from the University of Münster (Germany); see http://www.doliche.de/ (cf. further below n. 15) and http://www.uni-muenster.de/Religion-und-Poli- tik/forschung/projekte/c9.html; for a more recent project on the distribution of Syrian cults within the Roman Empire, see http://www.uni-muenster.de/Religion-und-Politik/forschung/projekte/b2- 20.html. The processes through which the (Roman) cult of Jupiter Dolichenus was created and dif- fused throughout the Imperium Romanum have also been intensively debated in recent scholarship; cf. below n. 32. 8 See BRICAULT, , as well as RICIS and SNRIS. In contrast, the corpora of epigraphic and archaeological sources for the cults of Mithras and Jupiter Dolichenus are more or less outdated by now. This is especially true for VERMASEREN’s CIMRM, which definitely needs to be replaced by a new corpus in the near future, but also for the more recent CCID, as there are serious doubts con- cerning some of the criteria used to gather the material; for the latter, see the remarks by M. BLÖMER, in this volume pp. 96–112. 9 Cf. now NAGEL, Ausbreitung des Isis-Kultes; as well as EAD., Gesichter der Isis; and the paper by S. NAGEL, in this volume pp. 207–231. 10 DOUSSA, Imagining Isis; QUACK, Ich bin Isis; ID., Lobpreis; ID., Isis, Thot und Arrian; KOCKELMANN, Praising the Goddess; STADLER, Spätägyptische Hymnen. Cf. also the papers by M.A. STADLER and J.F. QUACK, in this volume pp. 232–243 and 244–273. 11 For a list of the most recent archaeological discoveries connected to the cult of Mithras, see BECK, Mithraism after ‘Mithraism since Franz Cumont’, 7–14; KLENNER, Breaking News; and CLAUSS, Mithras, 183 f. Furthermore it should be mentioned that some older excavations of im- portant sanctuaries of Mithras have received an exhaustive scientific treatment only in recent years, such as the ‘Walbrook temple’ in London (SHEPHERD, Temple of Mithras) or the ‘Mithräum am Ballplatz’ in (HULD-ZETSCHE, Mithraskult in Mainz). 12 To cite just a few examples: One of the most intriguing epigraphic finds of the last decades is a bronze tablet discovered in Virunum (Noricum) which exhibits an inscription containing a (com- plete?) list (album) of the followers of one Mithraic community: AE 1994, 1334; cf. the detailed commentary by PICCOTTINI, Virunum. In Inveresk () two altars for Mithras and were found which point to the existence of the northernmost sanctuary of Mithras known today; see TOMLIN, Inscriptions, 441–444 nos. 5–6 (= AE 2011, 678/79). The excavations of a in Lucus Augusti/Lugo (Hispania citerior) have yielded an inscribed altar that throws new light on the expansion of the cult in Roman : AE 2006, 663; cf. ALVAR/GORDON/RODRÍGUEZ, Lugo. The Introduction 3 mal bones which help us to analyse the ritual context of specific sanctuaries by using up-to-date archaeological techniques.14 In the case of Jupiter Dolichenus the excavations of a large sanctuary on the Dülük Baba Tepesi near Doliche in Commagene, the (supposed) ‘homeland’ of this god, have shed new light on the question of the origins of the cult as it was known in the Roman Empire,15 whereas recently discovered sanctuaries of the god in places as far apart as Vindolanda (near ’s Wall in Britannia) and Balaklava (on the Crimean peninsula) have provided us with fresh insights into the diffusion of the cult and its local organization.16 reliefs of another recently detected altar dedicated to Deus Invictus Imperator from Burgina- /Alt-Kalkar ( inferior) show some very interesting symbols of Mithraic art: AE 1999, 1098; cf. GORDON, Viewing Mithraic Art. At the other end of the Mediterranean, a casual find of an inscribed Mithraic relief at Perge (in the province of Lycia et Pamphylia) has led to the identifica- tion of the first securely attested Mithraeum in the whole of Asia minor: I.Perge I 248. Finally, new research has also led to the rehabilitation of some Mithraic inscriptions which have long been known but have been regarded as suspicious in earlier scholarship – such as an altar from Rome that has been ‘rediscovered’ in South Africa and contains a unique dedication (in Greek) to Mith- ras as astrobrontodaimōn: IG XIV 998 = IGUR I 125; cf. GORDON, Mithras Helios. 13 The most spectacular discoveries of Mithraic wall-paintings (dated to the 4th century AD; some of them showing motives up to now totally unknown in Mithraic art) have occurred in Ha- warte in ; cf. GAWLIKOWSKI, Mithraeum at Hawarte. Some other wall-paintings found within Mithraic sanctuaries have received a fresh treatment in recent years (see MADARASSY, Bemalte Kultwand); especially the very important ones from the Mithraeum in S. Maria Capua Vetere; cf. GORDON, Mithraic Body. 14 Cf. the contributions to two collective volumes focusing on ‘small finds’ and animal bones from sanctuaries of Mithras and other gods: MARTENS/DE BOE, Roman Mithraism; and LEPETZ/VAN ANDRINGA, Archéologie du sacrifice animal. Of special interest are ‘rubbish dumps’ containing huge amounts of pottery and bones like those detected around the Mithraeum at Tienen in (MARTENS, Rethinking ‘Sacred Rubbish’; EAD., Mithraeum in Tienen; cf. also UL- BERT/WULFMEIER/HULD-ZETSCHE, Ritual Deposits; and the papers in SCHÄFER/WITTEYER, Rituelle Deponierungen); as well as complete assemblages of plates and vessels which were used for cultic purposes, such as those that have been found in front of a Mithraeum at Riegel in Germania supe- rior (MAYER-REPPERT, Fundmaterial). With regard to animal bones, a rich array of material has been excavated in a Mithraeum at Septeuil in Gallia Lugdunensis; cf. GAIDON-BUNUEL/CAILLAT, Honorer Mithra en mangeant. A very important single find is a cult vessel discovered at Mainz which is decorated on both sides with scenes depicting ritual processions within the cult of Mithras. The detailed interpretation of these scenes is disputed, however; cf. the divergent analytic models presented by HULD-ZETSCHE, Mainzer Krater; BECK, Ritual; GORDON, Ritual and Hierarchy. 15 For a summary of the excavations on the Dülük Baba Tepesi, see WINTER, Kult des Iupiter Dolichenus; and esp. the contribution by E. WINTER, in this volume pp. 79–95. One of the most spectacular finds in Doliche has been the discovery of a stele dating to the Roman period but showing the god in a traditional iron-age iconography: BLÖMER, Stele von Doliche. For the Com- magenian background of the cult, cf. the papers in WAGNER, Gottkönige am Euphrat. Some other new finds of inscriptions and reliefs have enlarged our knowledge of the worship of Jupiter Doli- chenus in the eastern provinces of the Roman Empire during the 2nd and 3rd centuries AD, some of them seemingly results of a ‘backward flow’ (or ‘reflux’) of religious concepts which had been further developed in the West; cf. FACELLA/WINTER, Neue Inschriften; and for the most important of these discoveries, a votive relief from Perrhe, BLÖMER/FACELLA, Weihrelief für Jupiter Doli- chenus (= SEG 56, 2006, 1840). 16 In Vindolanda a Dolichenum has been discovered inside the walls of the Roman fort, which is a very unusual location: BIRLEY/BIRLEY, Dolichenum; ID., New Dolichenum (see also AE 2010, 790–792). Balaklava: SARNOWSKI/ZUBAR/SAVELJA, Inschriftenfunde; SARNOWSKI/SAVELJA, Ba- laklava (see also AE 1998, 1154–1163). Another important new epigraphic find from Cilurnum/ 4 Joachim Friedrich Quack / Christian Witschel

On the other hand, some fresh theoretical and methodological approaches are now at hand which could be relevant for the study of the cults in question. Our project was part of a ‘Cluster of Excellence’ (Exzellenzcluster), which has been established at the Uni- versity of Heidelberg in 2007 and was at that time called Asia and Europe in a Global Context. Shifting Asymmetries in Cultural Flows.17 Such a background provides a spe- cific outlook as well as analytic parameters which can inform the research on some of the most popular cults within the Roman Empire. It might direct us towards a better understanding of processes of adaptation and transformation of originally ‘foreign’ cults as one of many historic examples in which a desire to fill a real or perceived void in the ‘mental map’ of contemporary societies, or for acquiring a package of (fascinat- ing) new knowledge, leads to the appropriation of what once had been regarded as the ‘Other’.18 On a broader level one can remark that in some instances such cultural or religious ‘flows’19 move in accordance with the political or economic dominance of one specific power over other entities, either imposed by a colonial authority or sought after by the subjects themselves as part of a program of ‘modernisation’.20 In other cases, however, like in the Roman Empire, such flows can – at least partially – also run counter to the general trend of (military) expansion.21 Here, some members of the dominant power (i.e. the ‘Romans’ – in itself an instable and shifting group) were at- tracted by religious phenomena which were perceived (or even constructed) as belong- ing to an ‘alien’ culture that was older than their own and thus worthy of some venera- tion but now subject to their political superiority. At this point it might be fruitful to

Chesters demonstrates that Jupiter Dolichenus was still venerated in Britannia in AD 286, thus proving that the cult did not come to an end in the middle of the 3rd century: AE 2005, 923 = RIB III 3299. At some places the re-interpretation of older discoveries has been fruitful for a better understanding of the sanctuaries of Jupiter Dolichenus and the surrounding religious landscape in general. A case in point is in superior; cf. KANDLER, Heiligtum; as well as HUMER/KREMER, Götterbilder; and KREMER, Götterdarstellungen. For the situation in Rome, cf. BELLELLI/BIANCHI, Orientalia sacra urbis Romae; RÜPKE, Immigrantenreligion. For a comprehen- sive treatment of the sanctuaries of Jupiter Dolichenus known through archaeological and epi- graphic evidence, see now SCHWARZER, Heiligtümer. 17 See http://www.asia-europe.uni-heidelberg.de/de/startseite.html (the Cluster has now been re- named as “Asia and Europe in a Global Context: The Dynamics of Transculturality”). For our sub- project (D7), entitled “From the Orient to Rome and Back Again. Religious Flows and the Expan- sion of ‘Oriental Cults’ in the Roman Empire”, see http://www.asia-europe.uni-heidel- berg.de/de/forschung/d-geschichte-kulturerbe/d7.html. 18 On the conceptualisation of the ‘Other’ in the Roman Empire, see the observations by M. J. VERSLUYS, in this volume pp. 274–293; as well as VERSLUYS, Aegyptiaca Romana. 19 For the concept of ‘religious flows’, cf. WITSCHEL, ‘Orientalische Kulte’, 20–22. The use of this analytical tool (which is only one among a number of others!), should not, however, be under- stood as a deliberate return to older models of ‘diffusion’ and ‘acculturation’ which have often op- erated with the notion of an unilateral and one-directional transfer of religious (and other) phenomena from one (fixed) cultural entity to another. Such an approach is rightly criticized by VERSLUYS, Orientalising Roman Gods, 241 f. (and n. 15), 251. 20 These observations are of course related to the broader issue of ‘Romanisation’, a concept which has been hotly debated in recent years; cf., for example, SCHÖRNER, Romanisierung; HINGLEY, Globalizing Roman Culture; MATTINGLY, Imperialism; MANN, Frage der Romanisierung. 21 For some recent attempts (not always successful in our eyes) to use modern network theories in order to explain the rapid expansion of specific cults within the Roman Empire, cf. COLLAR, Network Theory; EAD., Military Networks; EAD., Religious Networks. Introduction 5 bring in comparative material from more recent periods: Modern (western) fascination with Buddhism, for example, can provide us with interesting models for interpreting the material we know from the ancient world.22 At the same time, we can expect not only to benefit from the insights of our col- leagues from Modern and Contemporary (Global) History, but also to add a substantial input of our own in order to confer more depth to the current debates on ‘religious con- fluences’ and also to the broader theme of ‘cultural hybridity’. Since we treat a period of Antiquity with political, socio-economic and cultural conditions quite different from those in modern times, we hope to make clear what part of the observed phenomena might be classified as ‘universal’ and which other parts are more specific to certain periods or epochs because they are conditioned by a peculiar political and cultural envi- ronment. Furthermore, we try to study religious developments over a long period of time (from the to Late Antiquity) and are thus able to come up with a broad historical perspective which is sometimes lacking in the analysis of contempo- rary religious phenomena. More specifically, one of our central aims is to use a global approach when looking at the different ‘foreign’ cults within the Roman Empire studied here (regardless whether we treat them as a more or less coherent group of ‘oriental cults’ or not) by not focusing on one of them in isolation, but by studying them together and in comparison with each other. It is obviously impossible nowadays for a single scholar to master the whole range of literary, papyrological and epigraphic sources as well as the numerous archaeological finds from the Roman Empire; and also the testimonies (many of them dating to much older periods) from the real or supposed ‘homelands’ of the cults in question which were situated in different parts of the ‘East’ (Asia minor, Syria, Persia, Egypt etc.). The requirements of linguistic competence and detailed knowledge of very different cultures are beyond the reach of any one person. Thus, the natural solution is to establish some kind of cooperation between the various scientific disciplines that are concerned with these phenomena. By combining contributions from Ancient Histori- ans, Classical Philologists and Roman Archaeologists as well as Egyptologists in this volume we hope to gain mutual benefits and to sharpen our eyes for similarities as well as differences between the phenomena that are brought into focus. One last – and very important – problem comes into play here. At least since the time of Franz Cumont it has been common to speak of ‘oriental cults’ as an overarching category,23 and despite growing criticism in recent scholarship24 this is still a model favored by many scholars who deal with the religious landscape of the Roman Em-

22 See BAUMANN, Global Buddhism. 23 CUMONT, Religions orientales; this classic work is now to be consulted in the re-edition of 2006 with a very helpful historiographic introduction by C. BONNET and F. VAN HAEPEREN. For further studies on the history of the concept of ‘oriental cults’, cf. BONNET, Religions orientales; BONNET/BENDLIN, Approches historiographiques; BONNET/PIRENNE-DELFORGE/PRAET, Religions orientales; BONNET/OSSOLA/SCHEID, Rome et ses religions. 24 In addition to the literature cited in the previous note, cf. BONNET/RÜPKE/SCARPI, Religions orientales; BONNET/RIBICHINI/STEUERNAGEL, Religioni in contatto; WITSCHEL, ‘Orientalische Kulte’. 6 Joachim Friedrich Quack / Christian Witschel pire.25 Such an approach often implies the – rather problematic – claim of a general structural similarity between religious phenomena that were characterized by quite heterogeneous origins (both in time and in place) and later evolutions. It also takes the risk of introducing a kind of ‘orientalist’ discourse by which an undifferentiated picture of an exotic ‘Orient’ with a vibrant religious life – allegedly superior to the ‘coldness’ of traditional Roman religion26 – is constructed.27 Other elements which were supposedly shared by all or most of these cults have also come into discussion in recent years. It has been questioned, for example, what part (if at all) ritual complexes which might be characterized as ‘mysteries’ (such as rites of initiation) have played within the cults belonging to this supposed group;28 and whether it is appropriate to classify them as ‘mystery cults’ or even as ‘mystery religions’ in toto.29 It is equally disputed if and to what extent these cults offered some promise of salvation to their followers (and might thus be called ‘religions of salvation’ or ‘Erlöser-Religionen’) – either in this world or with regard to a life after death.30 Following recent trends in religious studies dealing with the Roman Empire,31 we are not convinced that such a (perceived or real) unity of ‘oriental cults’ ever existed. We rather intend to check the validity of these concepts by paying careful attention to the many discrepancies encountered in case studies; and to be open-minded with regard to the possible variety of the final results.

25 For example by TURCAN, Cultes orientaux; and especially by ALVAR, Romanising Oriental Gods; ID., Religiones orientales. Cf. also the contribution by J. ALVAR, in this volume pp. 23–46. The theses of ALVAR have provoked a number of dissenting statements; see e.g. SFAMENI GASPARRO, Eschatologie, 158–160; VERSLUYS, Orientalising Roman Gods, 239, 257–259. 26 The idea that the ‘traditional’ Roman religion was mainly characterized by a strict obedience to the rules of ritual and was therefore not able to capture people emotionally was originally devel- oped by Georg WISSOWA and is still widely repeated today, although it is quite problematic in itself; cf. BENDLIN, Emotion und Orient. 27 For the concept of ‘Orient’ that was relevant for CUMONT and his contemporaries (and also for th the discourse of ‘orientalism’ developed in the 19 century), cf. BONNET/VAN HAEPEREN, in: CUMONT, Religions orientales, XXX–XXXIX; STROUMSA, Orientalism; BURKERT, ‘Orient’; VERSLUYS, Orientalising Roman Gods. For modern views on the notion of ‘Orient’ with regard to the ‘oriental cults’, see BELAYCHE, Romanité; EAD., ‘Orient’. 28 That some kind of ‘mysteries’ (mainly defined by esoterism and initiation: SFAMENI GAS- PARRO, Misteri e culti orientali, 186 f.; BREMMER, Mysteries, XII) were a central aspect of the cult of Mithras has long been an undisputed assumption (cf. also below n. 40), but is now called into question by GORDON, Mithras-Forschung, 240 f. In the case of Isis, the role and significance of a ‘mystery component’ within the cult are hotly debated; cf. the divergent positions of J. ALVAR and esp. of J. STEINHAUER, in this volume pp. 23–46, esp. 29–31, and 47–78; as well as BREMMER, Mysteries, 110–125. The discussion centres very much on the (disputed) value of the image presented by in book XI of his ; for which cf. the papers in KEULEN/EGELHAAF-GAISER, Isis Book; and now KEULEN et al., Isis Book. In contrast, there is no evidence for the existence of mysteries within the cult of Jupiter Dolichenus. 29 For some major contributions to this debate, cf. BURKERT, Mystery Cults; SFAMENI GAS- PARRO, Misteri; EAD., Misteri e culti orientali; BOWDEN, Mystery Cults; BREMMER, Mysteries. 30 On the question of the soteriology within the so-called ‘oriental cults’, see the pertinent re- marks by SFAMENI GASPARRO, Eschatologie; but also BECK, Ritual, 173–178; and J. ALVAR, in this volume pp. 31–33. 31 See above n. 23–24. Introduction 7

The first case study presented in this volume (containing three papers) focuses on the origins and diffusion of the cult of Jupiter Dolichenus in the Roman Empire, for which different models are presented here.32 The expansion of the cult(s) of Isis and Osiris is the subject of the next part of the book which also deals with forms of textual transfer from Egyptian languages (especially Demotic) to Greek and Latin.33 Then the different forms in which the gods were conceptualized through images are discussed in some detail in the following three papers.34 The so-called ‘oriental cults’ are characterized by a rich repertoire of visual expressions which show a wide array of iconographic variations.35 Although some forms of standardization are detectable, there are no signs of a mechanical reproduction of a small number of central (cult) images. We are instead confronted with continuing processes of rearranging given motives as well as creating new designs;36 and – especially in the representation of Jupiter Dolichenus – also with constant alterations between an ‘orientalising’ and a ‘westernising’ or ‘Romanising’ mode of depiction.37 The last section of the book concentrates on the variability in the setting, architectural design and décor of the sanctuaries of Isis38 and Mithras,39 and also on the rituals that were staged within these temples.40

32 Whereas many scholars (especially those connected to the ‘Münster school’; cf. above n. 7) propose that Doliche, a small town in the region of Commagene from which the god took its name, was the actual homeland of the cult (containing its ‘central sanctuary’ or ‘Hauptheiligtum’, the ori- gins of which date back to the early Iron Age; see above n. 15) from which it was supposedly dif- fused to the West especially by the agency of members of the Roman army, an alternative model is presented by M. L. DÉSZPA, in this volume pp. 113–181 (see also ID., Klio 96 [2024] 749–756). The role of soldiers in spreading the ‘masculine’ cults of Mithras and Jupiter Dolichenus has been inten- sively discussed (and modified) in recent years; for the cult of Mithras, see the comprehensive study of GORDON, Roman Army; for the cult of Jupiter Dolichenus, see COLLAR, Military Networks; HAENSCH, Angehörige des römischen Heeres. 33 Cf. above n. 9–10 and also I. MOYER, in this volume pp. 182–206; supplemented by MOYER, Egypt, and STADLER, Einführung, 16 f., 108–112. See now also a volume on the interactions between Egyptian and Greek literature in general: RUTHERFORD, Greco-Egyptian Interactions. 34 See in general BRICAULT/PRESCENDI, Théologie en images; MOORMANN, Divine Interiors, 149–187; for the cult of Isis, cf. NAGEL, The Goddess’s New Clothes. 35 For the rich visual repertoires (‘Bilderwelten’) in the cult of Mithras, see D. FRACKOWIAK, in this volume pp. 294–328 (cf. also above n. 13). In addition to the many large-scale depictions of Mithras and his myth there are also a lot of miniature images of the god; see GORDON, Miniature Reproductions. 36 The pronounced variety of visual compositions and iconographic motives has been especially well studied with regard to the central cult images in the cult of Mithras which show many different side scenes; cf. GORDON, Panelled Complications; SCHOFIELD, Iconographic Variation. A remarkable new find of a relief showing the ‘standard’ tauroctony but also some rather unique addi- tional motives is now kept in the Israel Museum in but was probably produced some- where in Northern Syria: DE JONG, Mithraic Tauroctony. See also above n. 13 for the discovery of extraordinary wall-paintings with no connection to the known ‘canon’ of Mithraic art in a Mithraeum at Hawarte. 37 See the article by R. KRUMEICH, in this volume pp. 329–352; and also KRUMEICH, Dokumente orientalischen Selbstbewusstseins; cf. further above n. 15. 38 See the papers by K. KLEIBL and F. SARAGOZA, in this volume pp. 353–371 and 372–383 (with special reference to the temple of Isis at Pompeii). A comprehensive study of Isiac sanctuaries has recently been published by KLEIBL, Iseion. On the Isea in Rome and Beneventum, two important sites in Italy, cf. LEMBKE, Iseum Campense; QUACK, Iseum Campense; BÜLOW CLAUSEN, Flavian Isea. One of the most spectacular finds in recent years has been the discovery of a sanctuary 8 Joachim Friedrich Quack / Christian Witschel

It emerges quite clearly from the case studies presented in this volume (and else- where) that the cults in question had no fixed doctrinal core or ‘theology’ which was then spread unaltered over long distances in time and space.41 Instead, their basic struc- tures, rituals42 and outward appearance were constantly adapted to the needs and expectations of their followers in different parts of the Roman Empire.43 In this context, of Isis (Panthea/Regina) and Mater Magna at Mainz; cf. WITTEYER, Heiligtum; EAD., Rituelle Niederlegungen (and AE 2004, 1014–1023 = RICIS II 609/0501–0509). 39 The architecture and infrastructure of Mithraea are extensively treated by A. HENSEN, in this volume pp. 384–412. For further studies on the setting and layout of Mithraic sanctuaries, cf. BECK, Rock-Cut Mithraea; SCHATZMANN, Topographie von Mithras-Heiligtümern; KLÖCKNER, Mithras; GORDON, Mithras-Heiligtümer. There is now a comparable analysis of the known sanctuaries of Jupiter Dolichenus: SCHWARZER, Heiligtümer. 40 In the cult of Isis, Osirian rituals based on Egyptian models still played a central role in Ro- man sanctuaries (cf. QUACK, Iseum Campense; NAGEL, Ausbreitung des Isis-Kultes), and the Isia- festival with its celebration of the discovery of Osiris (inventio Osiridis) was integrated into the Roman calendar, see e.g. MALAISE, Conditions, 227; PERPILLOU-THOMAS, Fêtes d’Égypte, 94–100. Furthermore, derivatives of the Egyptian daily temple ritual seem to have been conducted in Isiac sanctuaries (according to some sources), cf. DUNAND, Culte d’Isis, 197–202; NAGEL, Kult und Ritual. Individual, local forms of cult practices can be observed, for instance, in the sanctuary of Isis and Mater Magna at Mainz, cf. above n. 38. Various kinds of ritual definitely also played an important role in the cult of Mithras, but we don’t know very much about the details (and some of the more explicit information is conveyed by outsiders like Christians and thus remains at least partially dubious). In addition, we have to account for the fact that there seems to have been quite a lot of freedom for the leading figures within a given Mithraic community to shape the rituals ac- cording to their own views (cf. GORDON, Mithras-Heiligtümer, 217; and below n. 43 and 46). There is no doubt that the collective cultic meal celebrated in the Mithraea was of central importance for the followers of the god; cf. KANE, Mithraic Cult-Meal; HULTGÅRD, Repas cultuels. This observa- tion has been confirmed by recent analyses of animal bones that were found in sanctuaries of Mith- ras (see above n. 14); they can show that particularly young pigs and poultry (especially cocks) were consumed. Rather problematic is the nature of the sacrifices that were performed within (and also outside?) the Mithraea, as our sources give no details on them. This is also true for a complex of rituals that is commonly labelled as ‘initiations’, although they are not described as such from an emic perspective; cf. GORDON, Ritual and Hierarchy, 258–266; ID., Mithraic Body; BREMMER, Mysteries, 125–138. A characteristic feature of Mithraic rituals is their strong connection to (or even a kind of re-enactment of) the mythical stories that had developed around the god; cf. BECK, Ritual, 145–149. They also often took the form of a dramatic or theatrical staging with effects of light and darkness (cf. GORDON, Viewing Mithraic Art, 241–244); the performative aspects of the cultic procedures (including processions of various groups, for which see the wall-paintings in the Mithraeum under S. Prisca at Rome: VERMASEREN/VAN ESSEN, Excavations) are thus quite obvious. In contrast, we know nearly nothing about the rituals that were performed by the worshippers of Jupiter Dolichenus; but the design of some of the sanctuaries seems to demonstrate that collective meals played an important role in this cult too (see SCHWARZER, Heiligtümer, 181 f.). 41 This statement is not undisputed, however; for a divergent view regarding the cult of Mithras, see BECK, Ritual, 158 (and n. 61: “I maintain that Mithraism did indeed have doctrinal norms [as I would prefer to call them] …”), 171 f. But see also ID., Beck on Mithraism, XXII: “That Mithraism had anything like a systematic and coherent body of teaching, transmitted to the initiates as a neces- sary element of the mysteries or guarded by the Fathers as arcana, I no longer consider tenable”. 42 Cf. GORDON, Mithraic Body, 297, on the character of ritual complexes in the cult of Mithras: “my opinion is that initiatory tests were not standardized between temples, and that each Mithraic community devised its own forms of initiation with reference to certain ‘sacralized moments’ in the myth of Mithras”. 43 See BEARD/NORTH/PRICE, Religions of Rome, 278; as well as the remarks by GORDON, Ritual and Hierarchy, 258 f., on Mithraism: “it may very well be that different Mithraic communities con- Introduction 9 it is important to keep in mind that these cults were ‘optional’ or ‘elective’.44 People were not obliged to take part in them (as, for example, in the imperial cult), but could consciously decide to join in by selecting their preferred cult out of a broad range of religious choices. In addition, the adherents of these cults (especially those of Mithras and Jupiter Dolichenus) were normally organized in rather small groups around a sanctuary with reduced dimensions, thus creating an ‘intimate’ atmosphere for the wor- shippers. Such ‘small group cults’ (‘Gruppenreligionen’)45 seem to have been espe- cially open (and attractive) for religious innovation and appropriation which were initi- ated by creative individuals within these groups.46 On the other hand, the religious phe- nomena we are dealing with – which might be labelled as ‘universal cults’ as they were present in many different regions of the Mediterranean – were also characterized by a certain degree of uniformity, which made them recognizable throughout the Roman Empire and created a sense of belonging (and membership) for their followers.47 When looking at these cults from a broad perspective, we are therefore confronted both with a remarkable standardization of some important organizational,48 ritual, architectural and

structed their own particular rituals in keeping with their understanding of the requirements. There would then be not one Mithraic ritual system but many, each presenting slightly different value commitments”; further ID., Religious Options, 398, on the specific form of ritual that has been revealed by the excavation of the Mithraeum at Tienen (see below n. 63): “[this is] one of the many indications of the extent to which the cult was adapted to local needs and usages”. But cf. also BECK, Mithraism after ‘Mithraism since Franz Cumont’, 6 f., 15 f. 44 For the concept of ‘elective’ or ‘optional’ cults, see BEARD/NORTH/PRICE, Religions of Rome, 275; GORDON, Religious Options. 45 The model of ‘small group cults’ has been developed in the contributions to RÜPKE, Gruppenreligionen; see esp. RÜPKE, Integrationsgeschichten. 46 The idea that the specific structures within the ‘small group cults’ were shaped to a high de- gree by individual ‘religious entrepreneurs’ (or ‘mystagogues’, as he prefers to call them) has re- cently been put forward by GORDON, Individuality (see esp. 161f.: in this context “small scale inno- vation, re-interpretation and reflection were both inevitable and normal”; of special importance was “the power exercised by the mystagogue to construct religious experience as he … deems appropri- ate”). Although such processes are not easily recognized in our sources, the rather specific setting and décor of many Mithraea (and the divergent ritual practices that seem to have been performed within them; see above n. 42–43) can best be explained by the initiative of individuals who were responsible for the conceptualization of a sanctuary and are sometimes explicitly attested in build- ing or votive inscriptions: GORDON, Mithras-Heiligtümer, 213–215; ID., Mithras-Forschung, 241 f. On the (difficult) question of who might have been the institutionalized ‘leader(s)’ of Mithraic communities, see MITTHOF, Vorstand der Kultgemeinden. 47 The relative homogeneity of the cults in question is stressed by J. ALVAR, in this volume pp. 26–28. 48 A case in point is the system of ‘grades’ within the cult of Mithras (seven of them are attested by Hier. epist. 107, 2). Regardless of the question how the function of these grades might be inter- preted (for divergent positions, see MERKELBACH, Weihegrade, and CLAUSS, Grade), it seems cer- tain by now that they were established early in the development of the Roman cult of Mithras and that this system was geographically widespread (cf. GORDON, Ritual and Hierarchy, 248–253). Nevertheless, some of the grade-names are attested much more often than others, and we can also detect a degree of regional variety in these denominations, as is best demonstrated by the graffiti in the Mithraeum at Doura Europos (see FRANCIS, Graffiti; FRACKOWIAK, Weihegrade, 232 f.; BREMMER, Mysteries, 134). 10 Joachim Friedrich Quack / Christian Witschel iconographical elements (like the ‘icon’ of the tauroctony in the cult of Mithras),49 and at the same time with a large range of variations, some of them presenting highly indi- vidual creations.50 There was thus a constant tension between the poles of the ‘univer- sal’ and the ‘particular’ (on the local level) within these cults.51 On the other hand, we have to recognize that besides using a global approach the specificity of each cult and its historical development should also get more attention. To give just one example: Looking at the veneration of Isis it has become apparent during the last years that there is a strong link between the Graeco-Roman form(s) of the cult and genuine Late Period Egyptian roots.52 Especially the demotic sources have proved to be of crucial importance in this respect. They have allowed us to connect the concept of Isis as a supreme much better to the situation in Egypt itself during the Late Period. Besides that, it has become increasingly clear that there were elaborate Egyptian mythological tales about the wars of the gods taking place mainly in Asia, and that the Greek accounts such as those written by Diodorus and ultimately rely

49 For the visual representation of the tauroctony in the cult of Mithras and its iconographic archetypes, see TURCAN, Mithra tauroctone; FARAONE, Mithraic Bull-Wounding Scene; BOSCHUNG, Mithras; and D. FRACKOWIAK, in this volume pp. 304–308. 50 A good example for such a highly individual creation is a small Mithraic ‘plaque’ that was found in St. Albans (Verulamium in Britannia). It was fabricated in the later 2nd century AD by reusing and re-cutting a silver coin of the Augustan period. The image on the reverse was changed into an illustration of the rock-birth of Mithras; and two new legends were added, one (in Greek) saying Mithras Ōromasdēs / Phrēn, the other (in Latin) dedicated to D(eo) M(ithrae) (CIMRM I 827 = RIB II 1, 2408.2). The direct identification of Mithras with the highest Persian and Zoroas- trian god Oromasdes/ is only found here in a Roman context, and this fact might point to the existence of small and rather ‘esoteric’ circles within the cult that consisted of well-educated individuals who developed fanciful speculations about the cosmological and ‘Persian’ nature of the god (cf. GORDON, Mithras Helios, 184f.; and also above n. 12). It might be added that Phrēn is likely to be a rendering of name of the Egyptian sun-god, see PEREA YÉBENES, Demon mégico; VON LIEVEN, Soul of the sun, 56; QUACK, Zauber ohne Grenzen, 195. The recourse to a specifically Egyptian form would enhance the impression that this plaque was produced in a highly learned esoteric circle. In some exceptionally well documented cases the initiative of individuals in spread- ing new religious ideas can even be demonstrated on the ground. One such person was Q. Axius Aelianus, equestrian procurator in Dacia around AD 235 (cf. PISO, Provinciae Daciae, 227– 235 no. 102). He erected a number of votive inscriptions in his administrative headquarters at Sar- mizegetusa, including one dedicated to Mithras invictus, Camulus, Mercurius and Rosmerta (AE 1998, 1100). This is a rather peculiar combination, as Mithras is here addressed together with three Celtic gods which were particularly venerated in Northern Gaul. Aelianus seems to have en- countered the worship of these gods during one of the previous posts in his career when he was procurator rationis privatae per Belgicam et duas Germanias (see CIL III 1456 = ILS 1371). The combination of Mithras with Celtic gods, especially Mercurius, is also quite typical for this region, especially for (see below n. 63); and it is thus conceivable that Aelianus brought this idea with him when he came from Northern Gaul to Dacia – a good example for the transfer of religious concepts over quite a long distance by the action of a single individual. 51 For the model of the ‘universal’ (or the ‘general’) and the ‘particular’, see – with special refer- ence to the cult of Jupiter Dolichenus – the contribution by M. L. DÉSZPA, in this volume pp. 167– 172; cf. also KAIZER, Oriental Cults. 52 Cf. NAGEL, Ausbreitung des Isis-Kultes, who has also pointed out that in some Isiac sanctuaries in central Italy and North Africa a direct dependence from cultic communities in Egypt or can be observed.
